NAME

       tiffsplit - split a multi-image TIFF into single-image TIFF files

SYNOPSIS

       tiffsplit src.tif [ prefix ]

DESCRIPTION

       tiffsplit  takes  a  multi-directory  (page)  TIFF  file  and  creates one or more single-
       directory (page) TIFF files from  it.   The  output  files  are  given  names  created  by
       concatenating a prefix, a lexically ordered suffix in the range [aaa-zzz], the suffix .tif
       (e.g.  xaaa.tif, xaab.tif, ..., xzzz.tif).  If a prefix is not specified  on  the  command
       line, the default prefix of x is used.

OPTIONS

       None.

BUGS

       Only a select set of ``known tags'' is copied when splitting.
